The second episode of my "Manhattan Project" was inspired by my love for New York and my home in Manhattan Beach, CA. I wanted to know what it would feel like to be in both places at the same time.
These images from Manhattan, NY and Manhattan Beach, CA were captured on my Leica in 2017.
In the foreground, the Manhattan Beach Pier was shot from a helicopter at 1,000 feet. The Lower Manhattan scene was taken from the Manhattan Bridge at Sunset.
I imagined the mythical NYC Ferry bringing commuters across the East River after a long day of work in Lower Manhattan before finally docking at their quiet refuge in Manhattan Beach, CA.
After making Episodes I & II the inspiration grew to explore both cities and find more opportunities to tell this story.
